Mazda is perhaps the only mass market auto manufacturer that has dabbled with the rotary engine for a few decades, and sold significant numbers of rotary-engined cars. Their legendary RX-7 is firmly cemented in enthusiast and tuner history as one of the greats. The RX-8 that followed was a bit more mellow, but added some family friendliness to the package while retaining that smooth, high-revving rotary motor. Apart from these models, there were a few others in history. One of these was the RX-3, which was offered between 1971 and 1978. This was the rotary-engined variant of the Mazda Grand Familia compact car, Mazda’s answer to Toyota’s fearsome Corolla and the Sunny from Nissan. Today, finding a Grand Familia is hard to say the least, much less its rarer rotary-engined variant, but we’ve got one right here. If you want a Japanese curio to grace your garage, this 1975 Mazda RX-3 awaits in Zephyrhills, Florida. It’s got an original 36,000 miles too.

The Mazda RX-7 holds the distinction of being the most mass-produced rotary-engined passenger car in history! Yes, there have been other mass-produced rotaries, such as the NSU RO80 and Mazda’s own RX-8, but none ever managed to match the sheer numbers of RX-7 production. How much is that exactly? Over 811,000 examples over three generations! Today’s 1987 Mazda RX-7 GXL is a nice second-generation example from Lake Barrington, Illinois and could be yours! It’s done just 63,000 miles and comes with a naturally aspirated example of that famous 13B twin-rotor powerplant.
The Mazda RX-7 is one of the most popular sports cars in the world because of its mold-breaking rotary engine that’s proven to be a tuner’s dream. That’s why you see highly tuned and built examples like this 1989 Mazda RX-7 Turbo II “Mariah Mode 6 Stage V” around. It’s said to be Build #1 by Mariah Motorsports of Santa Barbara, California, and comes with a long list of components. The build plaque notes that the car has got an eye-widening 468 horsepower for you to play with. Furthermore, you’ve got the signatures of James Hagerty and Dan McCue on the engine shroud. We’re also told that the car has passed California Smog tests (March 2024) but is not CARB compliant.
Japan in the 90s was an era that has most definitely changed the automotive landscape for the better. While legendary machines like the Toyota Supra, Nissan Skyline GTR and the Mazda RX7 are over 20 years of age, they sure make for some really good times when driven right. Present today is the latter of the aforementioned japanese legends and takes shape with this 1997 Mazda RX-7 Bathurst. With 164,000 KM displayed on the dashboard, this limited edition 90s performance powerhouse was released to commemorate Mazda’s consecutive wins at the Bathurst 12 hour race and is a treat on track that dons some tasty upgrades.
Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
